The Future Backwards – How did we get here?

Over the past 12 months (and some) there has been a lot of research going on in the council about how we might tackle the wicked issues that continue to evade most public policy solutions. Social decline, climate change, obesity to name just a few. The Future Shape of the Council video gives a quick overview of where we are and why we need to look at how the organisation is structured. But how did we get to here? What are the key texts and ideas that have influenced us as an organisation? Are these shared by others and who are we learning from?

For that reason I thought it might be useful to offer pottedpolicy to trace the key ideas and thinkers that have been influencing thought processes around the council and to link to sites where further information can be found for those interested. I will keep adding as the lexicon expands.
